Here is another ship in our Falklands 40th Anniversary tribute range. This is a brand new metal 1250 scale model of HMS Endurance, a Royal Navy ice patrol vessel from 1967 to 1991. She had a bright red hull, as is common for polar vessels to aid visibility but otherwise uncommon for the Royal Navy, so her crew nicknamed her The Red Plum. Endurance was equipped with a signals listening suite on top of the hangar. She also carried two Wasp helicopters. Cat ref N71 Length of the model is 75mms or about 3 inches.
This is a new metal model of HMS River Forth of the River class patrol boat of the Royal Navy in 1250 scale.
HMS Forth P222 is the fourth release in our series of River Class Ships. In service from 2018 she is a Batch 2 design. 90 metres in length, 24 knots, crew of 30 and Merlin capable. 2000 tonnes and armed with 30mm cannon and Phalanx system. These ships are multi purpose and can be fitted for a wide range of roles. Our model is about 70mm or 2.5 inches long and comes in its own box. ref N16
This limited edition ship is in mint condition, but unboxed.
The querk is that on the underside it does say HMS Newcastle, when in fact it is Glasgow. The heli deck is wrong too but this is the way they were made.
I have very few of these for sale, and also the reciprocal ships with the wrong name on the underside, HMS Cardiff and HMS Newcastle. In the limited edition this was a production error but Triang were unable to re-release the ships with correct pennant and casting. These were supplied to me by Triang many years later in a tidy up of their warehouse. We are about out of stock of the 2014 carded Glasgows too .
Length 4.0 inches and 100mm

Although no longer in service there are many fond associations with her, especially where they were built.
